Beef Stew with fregola - Sept 21st 2013

It's very hard to make a beef stew look appetising in a photograph.  Not as hard as making a plate of mince look good, but it's up there....

So you will have to take my word that this stew of braising steak with fresh plum tomatoes and fregola thrown in at the end to soak up some of the juices was delicious.   The veg were supposed to have been roasted, but I ran out of time, and so just sautéed them - there is red pepper, courgettes, onion and patty pan squash in there.  Very yum if less pretty :)
